EditText in PopupWindow not showing keyboard even if setFocusable(true)

Question

I can't seem to get this work. I already set popWindow focusable as to what I read on other forums but still no luck.

xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:background="@drawable/popbg"
android:orientation="vertical" >

<Button
    android:id="@+id/cancel"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="right"
    android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
    android:layout_marginTop="30dp"
    android:background="@drawable/zcancel" />

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/textView3"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
    android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
    android:text="SSID"
    android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" />

<EditText
    android:id="@+id/editText3"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:ems="10"
    android:inputType="textPersonName" />

java

 case(R.id.settings):
 switch (event.getAction()) 
 {
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
v.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.cpanel2);
return true;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
v.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.cpanel1);

LayoutInflater layoutInflater =  
    (LayoutInflater)getBaseContext().getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);  

View popSwitchView = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.settings_xml, null);

final PopupWindow popWindow = new PopupWindow(popSwitchView);
popWindow.setWidth(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
popWindow.setHeight(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
popWindow.showAtLocation(popSwitchView, Gravity.CENTER, 0, 0);
popWindow.setOutsideTouchable(false);  
popWindow.setFocusable(true);
Drawable d = getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.popbg); 
popWindow.setBackgroundDrawable(d);

Button CancelButton = (Button)popSwitchView.findViewById(R.id.cancel);

CancelButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
popWindow.dismiss();
}
});

                    popWindow.showAsDropDown(v, 50, -30);

                    return true;
                default:
                    return false;


            }

I'm planning on creating a popwindow of setting for network configurations. I can't seem to fix my code for a good view for you guys .

Answer 2

This worked for me:

popWindow.setFocusable(true);
popWindow.update();

Answer 3

Try adding this line before you show the popup:

popupWindow.setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_VISIBLE);

Answer 4

Nothing helped me, it still didn't appear on some devices, so I had to force showing it like that (kotlin):

val editText = customView.findViewById<EditText>(numberFieldId)
        editText.onClick {
            showKeyboard(editText, context)
        }

private fun showKeyboard(mEtSearch: EditText, context: Context) {
        mEtSearch.requestFocus()
        val imm = context.getSystemService(Activity.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE) as InputMethodManager
        imm.toggleSoftInput(InputMethodManager.HIDE_IMPLICIT_ONLY, 0)
    }

Answer 5

Try this::

Programatically:

edittext.requestFocus();

Through xml:

<EditText
android:id="@+id/editText3"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:ems="10"
android:inputType="textPersonName">
    <requestFocus />
</EditText>

Hope it Helps!!
